    I do not accept returns. Do not send me low offers.
    No international shipping.  If you are military or a PMC, contact me and we will see what we can work out.
    I will ship it once I see payment in my paypal.   As insurance on this for shipping will be high, the shipping price is a little higher.
    Update-  Hey everyone.  I have been asked when I will be lowering the price.  I'm not going to.  It is listed at 00.00 on Marathons site.  Adding in tax (which based on MN tax is around 5) this is a new watch for over 00 off what a new one from their site would run.   It's never been worn, still in the box ect.  I know people like good deals, I'm already taking a beating over what I am selling it for versus what I paid for it.  Please stop asking if it will go lower.  Thanks.  have a good one.
